Stock trading tools

When you are practised at reading a stock chart, you might be looking for more powerful tools, such as:

  • E*trade takes advantage of robust stock charts and trading tools. However, their pricing isn't the best.
  • Robinhood. This app gives just enough information to make informed decisions.
  • TD Ameritrade. You pay nothing for access to any of TD Ameritrade's trading platforms, streaming news, and expert research.
  • Public makes stock trading into a social event. You have access to a community of investors. Public also gives you access to stocks for as little as $5 and offer fractional shares.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Jamyson Haug
